This hardy fair sized Japanese type flower form has a deep wine-red collar and a ‘flatish’ ball center that is white in appearance. The yard tall dense bush carries its gay different flowers ten inches above its leaves. The very distinctive petaloids are pale, pink streaked inside and near white outside. They are one-half inch wide, curved scooplike with narrow bases-somewhat resembles some flat mums. Its pale green pistols have near white tops. I am naming this odd peony for an elder sister.
